The Wolf Forsaken by Juliana Haygert
4.0
The Wolf Forsaken is Juliana Haygert's spin-off story for Farrah the frost fae and Wyatt, the rogue werewolf. I was excited to read their story as I wanted to see where things were going to go and how things have been for the two characters since last we saw them.
The author begins the story with Wyatt. You can automatically tell that he's struggling with life. He's on his own and taking situations into his own hands. He's changed, and I can't help but feel for him as I see him struggle with the loss of Farrah not being in his life. Fararh is being hunted by her brother...but he's not the only one. The time has come for her to fulfill her promise, but she'd rather run than subject herself in marriage to the shadow fae she resents and despises.
The storyline overall is interesting and has it's good moments. I felt that I wanted more of Wyatt as the story begins to focus mostly on Farrah and her dilemma and issues. I struggle a bit with Farrah in this book at times because it seems like she's really focused on herself and what it is that she doesn't want to do. I appreciate the backstory on how her and her people find themselves in the situation that they do. However, it just ends up making me view Farrah as a selfish character. She's not the only one suffering, but it seems like she only cares about herself.
This book has it's engaging moments and then it has its moments of where it falls flat for me. I was expecting more drama, danger, suspense in this book, but I don't get as much as I'd have liked. I like the addition of a new character in this book. I'm hopeful that there will be more of her to be seen in the next book. This book's "ending" is a bit anticlimactic for me. I was hoping for something that would leave me on the edge of my seat. That's just not the case with this book. It feels a bit phoned in.
I am going to rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. It's good, but I feel that it could be better. It kinda feels like the author is giving readers this book so that we have Farrah and Wyatt's story, but like she's feeling her own way through it. I'm hopeful that the next book will be more engaging.
